How I Invented The Internet: A Memoir

Despite growing up in Deep River, Ontario, the company town for Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories that only exists because of science, Marilyn Carr was firmly neither a science, technology, engineering, nor mathematics person. When How I Invented the Internet begins, she has just wrapped up a master's degree in library science, which at least involved the word "science." So how did she accidentally end up in a tech career? It's complicated. How I Invented the Internet is a coming-of-work-age memoir set in 1980s and '90s Toronto. Along the way, our heroine muddles through a series of baffling jobs, patronizes questionable social venues, cobbles together a dating life with more downs than ups, and makes dubious housing choices. It's a romp through the era of aspirational yuppies, outrageous shoulder pads, and the wonders of office automation. You will never look at your computer the same way again. 9781771805681 1771805684 0 BOOK http://books.google.com/books/content?id=CKZuzwEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api http://books.google.com/books/content?id=CKZuzwEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&source=gbs_api en 9781771805681
